Human benchmark · simple reaction time
How fast is your reaction?
Wait for green. Click. One number in milliseconds — measured the way sports scientists measure it, then benchmarked against published norms for your age.

What your number means
Most healthy adults land between 230 and 310 ms (average). Below 190 ms is exceptional — typical of esports players and athletes who train reaction speed. Above 350 ms is worth working on.

Average reaction time by age
| Age | Average reaction time |
|---|---|
| 18–25 | 220–260 ms |
| 26–35 | 240–290 ms |

| 60+ | 300–400 ms |
Reaction time peaks in early adulthood and declines gradually as nerve conduction slows. Run the test several times and read your average — not a single lucky click — as your real baseline.
How to get faster
Sleep 7–9 hours. Deprivation is the single biggest drag on reaction speed.
Stay hydrated, skip alcohol. Both slow nerve signalling.
Practice daily. Even five minutes of a reaction or aim test strengthens the pathway.
Move. Aerobic exercise improves alertness and conduction.
Cut distractions. Quiet room, wired mouse, high polling rate.
Train the specific skill. Click speed and aim trainer transfer straight to gaming.
